Speaking References

It can be nerve-racking experience inviting an unknown speaker to present at your event. It can therefore be reassuring to know that the speaker was well-received at previous speaking engagements.

Below is a list of ministry coordinators who have previously invited me to speak at their events and have agreed to act as a reference for me. I also have a letter of recommendation from my Pastor. Contact details of these references are available on request.
